When it comes to high-quality building materials, copper and cupolas are a match made in heaven. Copper cupola roofs and accent pieces act as a beautiful crown to your home, lasting for decades with little to no maintenance. This lightweight yet flexible material is extremely durable and easily shaped for elegant, practical designs.
Why We Love Copper Cupolas
 |  |
Copper can be incorporated into as much - or as little - of a cupola design as you wish. Copper cupola roofs are the most popular, and typically come in straight, concave, and bell-shaped designs. You can also use copper for the base, as trim or drip rail molding, or as an insert for the star cutout on our Designer Series cupolas. You can even construct a cupola entirely from copper!

Copper looks great when paired against any building material, including cedar and vinyl. Because copper is easy to shape, you can create unique designs such as the standing seam roof on this Carlisle cupola. Pairing a standing seam roof with a board and batten base would add beautiful lines to your home!

Our copper cupolas are available both polished and with patina. Patina is the blue-green layer that forms on the surface of copper over time, much like rust develops on iron. Unlike rust, however, patina actually preserves the copper, protecting it from the elements. If patina develops naturally, its ultimate color will be determined by the corrosive elements it is exposed to (such as salt air). The color of the patina and how long it takes to develop will be unique to the environment. Man-made patina offers the same protective coating with a more uniform color distribution.
If you prefer the look of polished copper, you can either routinely clean the copper or, for more effective results, seal the copper. Copper cupola accents, such as weathervanes or finials, are easier to clean than large areas of copper, such as roofs or bases.
